About Craft, Coffee and Conversation

Do you find it hard to make the time to do something just for YOU? New for 2019, Selwyn Comed’s Craft, Coffee and Conversation will be held on Sunday afternoons during term time. It is an opportunity to relax, learn something new and meet other people who also live busy lifestyles. So, leave the kids at home, forget about the housework, don’t worry about dinner – instead, get creative while learning how to make a different craft each week, and give yourself the opportunity to chill out, while having fun! On each Sunday workshop, experienced, creative tutors will introduce different crafts which you'll learn. You'll take home your completed items, plus the knowledge of how to make these again. Materials are included for each workshop fee.
